Mission and Priorities
Mission
The Budget and Planning Office (BPO) for Oregon Tech actively supports teaching, research, service and outreach by producing and communicating financial information. In addition, the BPO plans and manages the financial resources available to the University as efficiently and effectively as possible in support of the University’s mission.
We accomplish this by producing, maintaining, analyzing, and forecasting accurate, impartial, and comprehensive information about the University’s financial past, present, and future. We communicate that information in a clear, useful, and timely manner to constituents inside and outside the University, so they may make the best possible planning, financial policy, and resource allocation decisions for the institution. Our goal is to ensure that financial decisions are equitable, implemented properly and consistently, are data-driven, and achieve their desired ends. The BPO provides this service in a professional and personal spirit of respect, honesty, fairness, cooperation, and goodwill.
The BPO strives to maintain a high standard of knowledge, expertise, service, ethics and professional integrity while providing sound counsel in the financial planning and decision making process of the University.
